Raila Odinga has been receiving at least three-quarters of Luhya votes in his journey to take over the highest office in the country.
It has been always 'support me this term and next will be Luhya', the song that has never materialized this far.
Have you ever wondered why Luhyas are always channeling their support to Mr. Odinga, regardless of them not getting what they would have been promised?
In the last year general elections, stronger Luhya leaders backed Odinga, the likes of Moses Wetangula, Musalia Mudavadi, Wycliffe Oparanya, Boni Khalwale and many others.
After the handshake between Odinga and President Uhuru, some Luhya leaders ditched Raila Odinga, saying he had betrayed the Mulembe nation, the Luhya people.
Before 2022 comes, chances of the very same Luhya leaders, who are saying Raila Odinga betrayed them when he decided to work with the government, to support Mr. Odinga will be so high.
The chances will be so high and shocking because of the Luhya prophecy which obligates Luhyas to support any leader from the lake region (Lake Victoria) for the presidency, thereafter is when a Luhya leader will ascend to power.
There was this famous prophet of Dini ya Msambwa, in Luyha, Prophet Elijah Nameme, who said Luhya leadership shall come from Lake Victoria region.
In his prophecy, no Luhya leader will become the president of Kenya until when a Luo from the lake will be.
For that prophecy, Luhyas will always feel betrayed by Raila Odinga, but towards the end of each given term of general elections, they come out in numbers to support him, because they know that is the only way to the State House
